BIND9 rndc-confgen, rndc with remedial error..

["Randy Lewis (Kenneth R. Lewis)" <randy@rtmx.net>]

Ran rndc-confgen, made sure copies were in /etc as well as /var/named/etc.

Updated the named.conf file with output from (above), the named.conf portion only.

Tried restarting everything, and get the error (below) which
has defied logic.

Geeezzz, the output directly from rndc-confgen is *not* acceptable!
Why?

----------------------------sample -----------
srv3-meb# rndc reload
rndc: error: /etc/rndc.key:7: unknown option 'options'
rndc: could not load rndc configuration
srv3-meb#

srv3-meb# cat /etc/rndc.key
# Start of rndc.conf
key "rndc-key" {
        algorithm hmac-md5;
        secret "U/Y0jnCnCOfjvtDABYU02A==";
};

options {
        default-key "rndc-key";
        default-server 127.0.0.1;
        default-port 953;
};
# End of rndc.conf
